certificate - What is a Pem file and how does it differ from other OpenSSL Generated Ke... - 0 views

  • Certificate Signing Request.
  • Some applications can generate these for submission to certificate-authorities
  • These get signed by the CA and a certificate is returned
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • The returned certificate is the public certificate (which includes the public key but not the private key), which itself can be in a couple of formats.
  • this is a container format that may include just the public certificate (such as with Apache installs, and CA certificate files /etc/ssl/certs), or may include an entire certificate chain including public key, private key, and root certificates
  • Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM), a failed method for secure email but the container format it used lives on
  • This is a PEM formatted file containing just the private-key of a specific certificate and is merely a conventional name and not a standardized one.
  • The rights on these files are very important
  • /etc/ssl/private
  • OpenSSL can convert these to .pem
  • .cert .cer .crt A .pem (or rarely .der) formatted file with a different extension
  • there are four different ways to present certificates and their components
  • used preferentially by open-source software
  • It can have a variety of extensions (.pem, .key, .cer, .cert, more)
  • The parent format of PEM
  • a binary version of the base64-encoded PEM file.
  • PEM on it's own isn't a certificate, it's just a way of encoding data
  • X.509 certificates are one type of data that is commonly encoded using PEM.

The MessagePack Project - 0 views

  •  
    "MessagePack is an efficient binary serialization format. It lets you exchange data among multiple languages like JSON. But it's faster and smaller. Small integers are encoded into a single byte, and typical short strings require only one extra byte in addition to the strings themselves."

Unique gradient generator - 0 views

  •  
    "This tool helps you to generate beautiful blurry background images that you can use in any project. It doesn't use CSS3 gradients, but a rather unique approach. It takes a stock image, extracts a very small area (sample area) and scales it up to 100%. The browser's image smoothing algorithm takes care of the rest. You can then use the image as an inline, base64 encoded image in any HTML element's background, just click Generate CSS button at the bottom of the app. Select source images from the gallery or use yours, the possibilities are endless."

What is a CSR (Certificate Signing Request)? - 0 views

  • usually generated on the server where the certificate will be installed and contains information that will be included in the certificate such as the organization name, common name (domain name), locality, and country.
  • A private key is usually created at the same time that you create the CSR, making a key pair.
  • CSR or Certificate Signing request is a block of encoded text that is given to a Certificate Authority when applying for an SSL Certificate
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • A certificate authority will use a CSR to create your SSL certificate, but it does not need your private key.
  • The certificate created with a particular CSR will only work with the private key that was generated with it.
  • Most CSRs are created in the Base-64 encoded PEM format.
  • generate a CSR and private key on the server that the certificate will be used on.
  • openssl req -in server.csr -noout -text
  • The bit-length of a CSR and private key pair determine how easily the key can be cracked using brute force methods.

  • A Secret is an object that contains a small amount of sensitive data such as a password, a token, or a key.
  • Users can create secrets, and the system also creates some secrets.
  • ...63 more annotations...
  • To use a secret, a pod needs to reference the secret.
  • A secret can be used with a pod in two ways: as files in a volumeA directory containing data, accessible to the containers in a pod. mounted on one or more of its containers, or used by kubelet when pulling images for the pod.

  • The Secret contains two maps: data and stringData.
  • The data field is used to store arbitrary data, encoded using base64.
  • Kubernetes automatically creates secrets which contain credentials for accessing the API and it automatically modifies your pods to use this type of secret.

Active Record Associations - Ruby on Rails Guides - 0 views

  • With Active Record associations, we can streamline these - and other - operations by declaratively telling Rails that there is a connection between the two models.
  • belongs_to has_one has_many has_many :through has_one :through has_and_belongs_to_many
  • an association is a connection between two Active Record models
  • ...195 more annotations...
  • Associations are implemented using macro-style calls, so that you can declaratively add features to your models
  • A belongs_to association sets up a one-to-one connection with another model, such that each instance of the declaring model "belongs to" one instance of the other model.
  • belongs_to associations must use the singular term.
  • belongs_to
  • A has_one association also sets up a one-to-one connection with another model, but with somewhat different semantics (and consequences).
  • This association indicates that each instance of a model contains or possesses one instance of another model
  • belongs_to
  • A has_many association indicates a one-to-many connection with another model.
  • This association indicates that each instance of the model has zero or more instances of another model.
  • belongs_to
  • A has_many :through association is often used to set up a many-to-many connection with another model
  • This association indicates that the declaring model can be matched with zero or more instances of another model by proceeding through a third model.
  • through:
  • through:
  • The collection of join models can be managed via the API
  • new join models are created for newly associated objects, and if some are gone their rows are deleted.
  • The has_many :through association is also useful for setting up "shortcuts" through nested has_many associations
  • A has_one :through association sets up a one-to-one connection with another model. This association indicates that the declaring model can be matched with one instance of another model by proceeding through a third model.
  • A has_and_belongs_to_many association creates a direct many-to-many connection with another model, with no intervening model.
  • id: false
  • The has_one relationship says that one of something is yours
  • using t.references :supplier instead.
  • declare a many-to-many relationship is to use has_many :through. This makes the association indirectly, through a join model
  • set up a has_many :through relationship if you need to work with the relationship model as an independent entity
  • set up a has_and_belongs_to_many relationship (though you'll need to remember to create the joining table in the database).
  • use has_many :through if you need validations, callbacks, or extra attributes on the join model
  • With polymorphic associations, a model can belong to more than one other model, on a single association.
  • belongs_to :imageable, polymorphic: true
  • a polymorphic belongs_to declaration as setting up an interface that any other model can use.

  • In designing a data model, you will sometimes find a model that should have a relation to itself
  • add a references column to the model itself
  • Controlling caching Avoiding name collisions Updating the schema Controlling association scope Bi-directional associations
  • All of the association methods are built around caching, which keeps the result of the most recent query available for further operations.
  • it is a bad idea to give an association a name that is already used for an instance method of ActiveRecord::Base. The association method would override the base method and break things.
  • You are responsible for maintaining your database schema to match your associations.
  • belongs_to associations you need to create foreign keys
  • has_and_belongs_to_many associations you need to create the appropriate join table
  • If you create an association some time after you build the underlying model, you need to remember to create an add_column migration to provide the necessary foreign key.
  • Active Record creates the name by using the lexical order of the class names
  • So a join between customer and order models will give the default join table name of "customers_orders" because "c" outranks "o" in lexical ordering.
  • For example, one would expect the tables "paper_boxes" and "papers" to generate a join table name of "papers_paper_boxes" because of the length of the name "paper_boxes", but it in fact generates a join table name of "paper_boxes_papers" (because the underscore '' is lexicographically _less than 's' in common encodings).
  • id: false
  • pass id: false to create_table because that table does not represent a model
  • By default, associations look for objects only within the current module's scope.
  • will work fine, because both the Supplier and the Account class are defined within the same scope.
  • To associate a model with a model in a different namespace, you must specify the complete class name in your association declaration:
  • class_name
  • class_name
  • Active Record provides the :inverse_of option

  • The :source_type option specifies the source association type for a has_one :through association that proceeds through a polymorphic association.
  • The :source option specifies the source association name for a has_one :through association.
  • The :through option specifies a join model through which to perform the query

  • When you assign an object to a has_one association, that object is automatically saved (in order to update its foreign key).
  • If either of these saves fails due to validation errors, then the assignment statement returns false and the assignment itself is cancelled.
  • If the parent object (the one declaring the has_one association) is unsaved (that is, new_record? returns true) then the child objects are not saved.

  • The collection_singular_ids method returns an array of the ids of the objects in the collection.
  • The collection_singular_ids= method makes the collection contain only the objects identified by the supplied primary key values, by adding and deleting as appropriate
  • The default strategy for has_many :through associations is delete_all, and for has_many associations is to set the foreign keys to NULL.
  • The collection.clear method removes all objects from the collection according to the strategy specified by the dependent option

  • where includes readonly select
  • :conditions :through :polymorphic :foreign_key
  • By convention, Rails assumes that the column used to hold the primary key of the association is id. You can override this and explicitly specify the primary key with the :primary_key option.
  • The :source option specifies the source association name for a has_many :through association.
  • You only need to use this option if the name of the source association cannot be automatically inferred from the association name.
  • The :source_type option specifies the source association type for a has_many :through association that proceeds through a polymorphic association.
  • The :through option specifies a join model through which to perform the query.

Warnings, Notes, & Tips - 0 views

  • AS3 manages topology records globally in /Common, it is required that records only be managed through AS3, as it will treat the records declaratively.
  • If a record is added outside of AS3, it will be removed if it is not included in the next AS3 declaration for topology records (AS3 completely overwrites non-AS3 topologies when a declaration is submitted).
  • using AS3 to delete a tenant (for example, sending DELETE to the /declare/<TENANT> endpoint) that contains GSLB topologies will completely remove ALL GSLB topologies from the BIG-IP.
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • When posting a large declaration (hundreds of application services in a single declaration), you may experience a 500 error stating that the save sys config operation failed.
  • Even if you have asynchronous mode set to false, after 45 seconds AS3 sets asynchronous mode to true (API swap), and returns an async response.
  • When creating a new tenant using AS3, it must not use the same name as a partition you separately create on the target BIG-IP system.
  • If you use the same name and then post the declaration, AS3 overwrites (or removes) the existing partition completely, including all configuration objects in that partition.
  • use AS3 to create a tenant (which creates a BIG-IP partition), manually adding configuration objects to the partition created by AS3 can have unexpected results
  • When you delete the Tenant using AS3, the system deletes both virtual servers.
  • if a Firewall_Address_List contains zero addresses, a dummy IPv6 address of ::1:5ee:bad:c0de is added in order to maintain a valid Firewall_Address_List. If an address is added to the list, the dummy address is removed.
  • use /mgmt/shared/appsvcs/declare?async=true if you have a particularly large declaration which will take a long time to process.
  • reviewing the Sizing BIG-IP Virtual Editions section (page 7) of Deploying BIG-IP VEs in a Hyper-Converged Infrastructure
  • To test whether your system has AS3 installed or not, use GET with the /mgmt/shared/appsvcs/info URI.
  • You may find it more convenient to put multi-line texts such as iRules into AS3 declarations by first encoding them in Base64.
  • no matter your BIG-IP user account name, audit logs show all messages from admin and not the specific user name.

MySQL :: MySQL 5.7 Reference Manual :: 19.2.1.2 Configuring an Instance for Group Repli... - 0 views

  • store replication metadata in system tables instead of files
  • collect the write set and encode it as a hash using the XXHASH64 hashing algorithm
  • not start operations automatically when the server starts
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • for incoming connections from other members in the group
  • The server listens on this port for member-to-member connections. This port must not be used for user applications at all
  • The loose- prefix used for the group_replication variables above instructs the server to continue to start if the Group Replication plugin has not been loaded at the time the server is started.
  • For example, if each server instance is on a different machine use the IP and port of the machine, such as 10.0.0.1:33061. The recommended port for group_replication_local_address is 33061
  • does not need to list all members in the group
  • The server that starts the group does not make use of this option, since it is the initial server and as such, it is in charge of bootstrapping the group
  • start the bootstrap member first, and let it create the group
  • Creating a group and joining multiple members at the same time is not supported.
  • must only be used on one server instance at any time
  • Disable this option after the first server instance comes online

Introducing Infrastructure as Code | Linode - 0 views

  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is a technique for deploying and managing infrastructure using software, configuration files, and automated tools.
  • With the older methods, technicians must configure a device manually, perhaps with the aid of an interactive tool. Information is added to configuration files by hand or through the use of ad-hoc scripts. Configuration wizards and similar utilities are helpful, but they still require hands-on management. A small group of experts owns the expertise, the process is typically poorly defined, and errors are common.
  • The development of the continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline made the idea of treating infrastructure as software much more attractive.
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • Infrastructure as Code takes advantage of the software development process, making use of quality assurance and test automation techniques.
  • Consistency/Standardization
  • Each node in the network becomes what is known as a snowflake, with its own unique settings. This leads to a system state that cannot easily be reproduced and is difficult to debug.
  • With standard configuration files and software-based configuration, there is greater consistency between all equipment of the same type. A key IaC concept is idempotence.
  • Idempotence makes it easy to troubleshoot, test, stabilize, and upgrade all the equipment.
  • Infrastructure as Code is central to the culture of DevOps, which is a mix of development and operations
  • edits are always made to the source configuration files, never on the target.
  • A declarative approach describes the final state of a device, but does not mandate how it should get there. The specific IaC tool makes all the procedural decisions. The end state is typically defined through a configuration file, a JSON specification, or a similar encoding.
  • An imperative approach defines specific functions or procedures that must be used to configure the device. It focuses on what must happen, but does not necessarily describe the final state. Imperative techniques typically use scripts for the implementation.
  • With a push configuration, the central server pushes the configuration to the destination device.
  • If a device is mutable, its configuration can be changed while it is active
  • Immutable devices cannot be changed. They must be decommissioned or rebooted and then completely rebuilt.
  • an immutable approach ensures consistency and avoids drift. However, it usually takes more time to remove or rebuild a configuration than it does to change it.
  • System administrators should consider security issues as part of the development process.
  • Ansible is a very popular open source IaC application from Red Hat
  • Ansible is often used in conjunction with Kubernetes and Docker.
  • Linode offers a collection of several Ansible guides for a more comprehensive overview.
  • Pulumi permits the use of a variety of programming languages to deploy and manage infrastructure within a cloud environment.
  • Terraform allows users to provision data center infrastructure using either JSON or Terraform’s own declarative language.
  • Terraform manages resources through the use of providers, which are similar to APIs.
